This watchdog blog, by journalist Norman Oder, offers analysis, commentary, and reportage about the $4.9 billion project to build the Barclays Center arena and 16 high-rise buildings at a crucial site in Brooklyn. Dubbed Atlantic Yards by developer Forest City Ratner in 2003, it was rebranded Pacific Park in 2014 after the Chinese government-owned Greenland Group bought a 70% stake in 15 towers. New York State still calls it Atlantic Yards. Contact: AtlanticYardsReport[at]hotmail.com

For more than two-and-a-half hours Monday morning, according to resident Wayne Bailey's post on Atlantic Yards Watch, two 18-wheel tractor-trailers illegally idled in the narrow single southbound lane on Sixth Avenue outside the Barclays Center, waiting to enter the B3 site at the corner of Dean Street.

That meant vehicles had to evade them by going into the oncoming traffic lane, as whown in the video below.
